On August 19, 2026, Qubic implements its Epoch 227 halving, the second in a recurring cycle first mapped out in 2024. Approved by the Quorum on June 3, 2026, this event cuts net new QUBIC entering circulation by roughly half, following the Epoch 175 halving of August 2025.

What is the Qubic Halving?

The Qubic halving is a programmed reduction in the protocol’s weekly token emissions, designed to control the supply of QUBIC tokens and promote long-term sustainability. As part of Project X, which reduced Qubic’s maximum supply from 1,000 trillion to 200 trillion QUBIC in 2024, the halving is a key mechanism to manage inflation and enhance token scarcity. Scheduled for Epoch 227, this event will cut effective emissions by increasing the proportion of tokens burned each week.

Qubic’s tokenomics rely on a weekly emission of 1 trillion QUBIC, with a portion allocated to miners, the Computor Controlled Fund (CCF), QEarn, and burns. The halving adjusts this balance by significantly increasing the burn rate, reducing the net tokens entering circulation.
